A drug plane was confiscated and four men arrested Tuesday night following a marijuana drop on the Seminole Indians` Big Cypress reservation, police said.

The twin-engine Beechcraft, trailed by a U.S. Customs aircraft, landed on a desolate road about 6 p.m. in the southwest section of the 78,000-acre reservation in Hendry County.

The plane, found empty except for marijuana residue in the cargo area, had been unloaded before deputies from the Hendry County Sheriff`s Office and officers from the Seminole Police Department arrived at the landing site.

Five hours later, Seminole police officers stopped a car in the area and arrested four men, according to Hendry Sheriff`s Lt. Jerry Sealy.
